Not a pretty picture, is it? And what about the emotional effects of being overweight or obese?
Depression, lack of self respect, feelings of unworthiness, no confidence, bitterness, jealousy, resentment, feelings of rejection, self hatred.
I could go on, but you get the idea.
Losing weight, especially if you find yourself in a higher risk category, can seem overwhelming, even impossible. Many have tried over and over to lose it, and have lost, only to regain even more than originally lost. Discouragement and hopelessness set in making the whole thing even worse.
But it is possible. YOU can do it.
Tapping on the end points of your body's energy meridians, also known as emotional freedom technique , developed by Gary Craig in the 1990s, has proven to be an effective addition to weight loss efforts.
Through the use of emotional freedom technique, many have broken through the barriers that have kept them over eating for years. Emotional freedom technique is a fascinating and simple way of releasing hidden stress that causes ineffective coping behaviors such as over eating or eating the wrong things.
Clients find that tapping enables them to stick to the diet plan and actually enjoy exercise, even when the process takes months.
